Recharge Your Soul 

Panama Yoga Retreat March 8th-15th, 2025

Join Meg & Amanda for a transformative week of yoga and exploration amidst the captivating landscapes of Panama. Tucked away in the tranquil sanctuary of Sansara Resort, where the ocean breeze mingles with the rustle of jungle leaves, embark on a journey that transcends the ordinary and awakens your soul. 


You’ll benefit from our daily yoga which will include styles like power, hatha, yon, restorative, breathwork and meditation. Beyond the mat, immerse yourself in ocean and jungle adventures as well as moments of pure relaxation. Whether it's catching waves, hiking through lush trails, or simply basking in the tranquility of the beach, each experience is an invitation to step outside your comfort zone and embrace the beauty of the present moment.


This retreat will provide a sanctuary for connection and community. Take the time to honor your body, mind and recharge your soul. Surrounded by kindred spirits, you’ll forge deep connections and meaningful friendships that transcend the confines of ordinary life. There's something magical about sharing this journey with like-minded individuals who are seeking growth and authenticity.


This retreat promises to be an unforgettable experience. So, what are you waiting for? Book your spot, pack your bags, and join us as we delve into the adventure of a lifetime. Let’s gooooo! 

Location

Nestled in the serene Panamanian village of Cambutal, our retreat is set amidst the rugged beauty of the Azuero Peninsula.  A five-hour drive from the bustling capital of Panama City, this tranquil haven sits at the southernmost tip of Panama, where the Pacific Ocean whispers against black sand beaches and verdant jungles cascade into majestic mountains.


Days are filled with exploration along the Pacific coastline, surfing the pristine waves that grace some of Panama's finest breaks, savoring delectable meals crafted from fresh, locally-sourced produce, and indulging in rejuvenating massage treatments. And of course, our yoga practice unfolds against the backdrop of crashing ocean waves, within the exquisite confines of Sansara's renowned yoga shala. Equipped with all the essentials, including mats, straps, bolsters, blankets, and blocks, it offers a seamless sanctuary for our practice, inviting us to dive deep into the transformative power of yoga.


Cambutal is not just a destination—it's a transformative experience, a place where the rhythms of nature harmonize with the beat of your heart, guiding you towards deeper connections and newfound possibilities.
